⚠️ Several social media posts circulating online claim that ants are congesting their E20 petrol-fueled vehicle fuel filler caps. #PIBFactCheck: ❌ Beware! These claims are #Fake. A link between E20 fuel and ant attraction has no scientific basis. ✅ There is no identifiable attractant associated with E20 fuel that would cause ants or other insects to congregate around vehicle fuel caps. 🔗x.com/BPCLimited/sta… 🔴 Flag any suspicious content related to the Government of India to @PIBFactCheck 👇 📲 +91 8799711259 📩 factcheck@pib.gov.in

Bharat Petroleum@BPCLimited

BPCL has examined the claims circulating on social media regarding ants congregating around vehicle fuel filler caps and their alleged association with E20 petrol. Fuel-grade ethanol used for petrol blending is produced through fermentation and distillation processes that eliminate residual sugars from the final product. Further, fuel ethanol contains denaturants, which are repellent to insects. Upon blending, the characteristic hydrocarbon odour of petrol remains dominant over any inherent ethanol odour. In addition, ethanol-blended petrol exhibits lower fuel vapour formation compared to conventional petrol. As a result, there is no identifiable attractant associated with E20 fuel that would cause ants or other insects to congregate around vehicle fuel caps. Therefore, claims suggesting a link between E20 fuel and ant attraction have no scientific basis. The claims being circulated on social media are baseless and are not supported by scientific evidence. #BPCL #FactCheck #EthanolBlending #E20 @HardeepSPuri @PetroleumMin @Secretary_MoPNG @MORTHIndia
